Brazil’s Top Court Cracks Down on Elon Musk’s X

Brasilia [Brazil]: In a bold move, Brazil’s Federal Supreme Court (STF) has ordered a nationwide suspension of X, formerly Twitter, owned by Elon Musk. The court’s decision comes after Musk failed to appoint a legal representative for X in Brazil within the stipulated 24-hour deadline.

Justice Alexandre de Moraes had warned Musk of the consequences of non-compliance, stating that the social network’s operations in Brazil would be suspended if a representative was not appointed. The court’s decision is effective immediately, and the suspension will remain in place until the company complies with the court’s orders and pays the applicable fines.

The court has also ordered Apple and Google to block the use of the X application on iOS and Android systems and remove it from their virtual stores. Additionally, a daily fine of BRL 50,000 will be imposed on individuals and companies that use “technological subterfuges” to maintain access to X.

According to Justice Moraes, the court had made every effort to ensure X Brasil complied with its orders, but the company’s repeated failure to do so left no choice but to take more severe measures. The decision highlights the importance of complying with court orders and the consequences of failing to do so.

This move marks a significant development in the ongoing saga between Brazil’s top court and Elon Musk’s X. As the situation unfolds, it remains to be seen how Musk and X will respond to the court’s decision.
